The OL Club Carol Service and Christmas Party
Over 250 OLs, families and friends gathered at St Peter’s Church in Eaton Square, SW1 for a festive evening of traditional carols, seasonal readings and joyful celebration.
Lessons were read by Alexa Bailey (Manor 2000-2002), Philip Womack (Sanderson’s 1995-2000), Rosie Scott- Griffin (Manor 2002-2007), Jeremy Tomlinson (Honorary Secretary of the Friends of Lancing Chapel), Poppy Ewence (Field’s 2005-2010), Sir Tim Rice (Second’s 1958-1962) and Head Master Dr Scott Crawford.
After the service, guests enjoyed refreshments, canapés and mince pies within the church – the perfect way to celebrate with only a week to go until Christmas Day! A big thank you to the OLs who have participated in this year’s Choir, conducted expertly by Tom Stockwell (Gibbs’ 2006-2008) and accompanied beautifully by organist Charles Standing (Second’s 1969-1973) and helped make the Carol Service sound so amazing!
